Will it have a 3rd person view style, with lightsabres, or is it a RTS?

It's a little of both. You can control the whole army RTS-style or take command of a single squad, a la Rainbow Six.

I hope this one gets ported to PC...:p

i hope the action, is deeper than the Xbox's lame obiwan game.

DeadEye

I've never played that. I guess it's good that it was cancelled for PC and went to Xbox...

Obi-Wan was originally planned to be Jedi Knight 2 but they gonked it up so much that Microsoft grabbed it for X-Box.

No. They wanted to call it "Dark Forces 3" just because it had a similar gameplay style to JK.

I hope not, I didn't really like the TPM game.

Well, it's on the Game Boy Advanced...

There is a different developer this time around for LucasArts, so i wouldnt suck as much as the TPM game. Power Battles was good tho.

DeadEye

The Jedi Knight series was the best IMHO.

Nebulaz

07-05-2002, 01:41 PM

I would agree, but i havent played JK2, yet.

DeadEye

07-05-2002, 07:40 PM

You should.

Is it a 2 disc set? and when are the expansion packs to be released.

DeadEye

07-06-2002, 09:19 AM

It's one CD. And I hadn't heard about an expansion pack.

Nebulaz

07-06-2002, 02:26 PM

If an expansion pack ever becomes available, I hope it'll be better than Mysteries of the Sith, that was kinda lame, after beating JK.

DeadEye

07-06-2002, 07:51 PM

I know. I was disappointed.

Nebulaz

07-07-2002, 12:41 AM

Same here. Not only were the graphics lackluster comparatively but the story line and dialogue was crap.

DeadEye

07-07-2002, 10:15 AM

Yeah, and the in-engine cutscenes were terrible. I had been expecting more FMV sequences.

Nebulaz

07-07-2002, 09:51 PM

Exactly, while the acting was too great in JK at least it was all movie, not ingame graphics.

DeadEye

07-07-2002, 10:07 PM

Yeah. JK2's movies are ingame graphics and look much better, and the acting is the best. In JK1 the acting was overdone, like a high school play or something. :p

Nebulaz

True, in JK1 they sounded out their emotions, but their faces should nothing like they should be radio actors not on screen.

DeadEye

I know! The only problem with JK2 is that the lip-synch sucks and the characters' teeth are huge, like everyone has dentures!!!

SOF2 has the best gore, graphics, animations, lip synch, everything. At least for now. :p

Very true. Unfortunately, the gameplay itself is mediocre. Not bad exactly, just very repetative and tedious sometimes.

The Dark Forces series is definitely one of the top two SW series, but I think the Xwing/TIE Fighter franchise ties with it for best SW games. Xwing Alliance was just fantastic and I still play it all the time. :)

DeadEye

07-08-2002, 11:40 AM

I absolutely despise X-wing Alliance! I was about ready to push Emkay out the airlock!!! Rogue Squadron is better IMHO.

I don't like flight sims much...but I don't think I've played any game other than Deus Ex where the gameplay didn't get tedious and repetitive.

Power Battles was insanely hard, I still haven't finished the game with Qui gon, plo koon and Adi gallia.

Did anybody?

DeadEye

07-08-2002, 12:30 PM

Just Obi-Wan.

Nebulaz

07-08-2002, 03:50 PM

Obi Wan and Qui-gon so far, I still play it everyone and a while and I'm playing it with Adi right now....I didnt find it that hard. The ruins level was hard but it was the hardest one IMO.
